Twilli’s second tooth (on the bottom) emerged today! The first one is even more visible! She is just too cute. She seems proud. My baby is growing up TOO FAST!

We will post a photo soon. (DH took some. But I haven’t rescued them from the camera yet.)

Again, I have to say that the Hyland’s Teething Tablets, nursing, and babywearing have saved our hides! I’ve been using the Ergo Baby Carrier like mad! And now Elliott uses it too, since Twilli essentially grew out of the Baby Bjorn that he used to like so much.

I am also in the process of trying to figure out how to make my own Scandi-inspired Mei Tai carrier. I will give updates on that project.

I am so thankful that I have my MacBook Pro, or I would have gotten NOTHING done, through these cluster-feeding sessions!

———–

Speaking of milestones, we took Twilli to the pediatrician for her belated 6 month well baby exam (and the icky shots :sniffle:). She is doing great! The weighs 17 pounds and is 27.5″ tall.

Dr. Reyes was very impressed that she is using the potty. We explained that we have reduced our diaper consumption by half. He said she is their first patient that has done infant potty training. We have gotten really good reactions from people about this whole thing. I guess

I am impressed with the whole IPT thing, heck that’s what our great grandparents did isn’t it!!! My daughter was 6 months old when we went to England, and they wondred why I hadn’t put her on the potty yet!
Hyland’s Teething Tablets kick arse!!!!!! They are so awesome, their ear ache drops are great too, as well as their colic tablets, I give those to my husband once a day…jk .. You knwo I ahve sleeping tablets from them, too!!! and bruising tablets, what the heck?!?!?!?!? I should own stock!!!!!

Reducing your diaper use by half – isn’t that just awesome. Well done for the planet!

Jordanna, yep, my Grandma and Great Grandma did, but my relative said “It’s Impossible, a 3 year old still pees every 15 minutes, I’ll give you two weeks!”
Well, we’re now EC’ing our second newborn! Today I took off the disposable he wore last night, and have used one pair of EcaPants and a towel the rest of the day – and a bucket.
